Give Rik Wimp a call from Arneson, I believe he has a company that makes them for some of the companies and might be able to help.

There's been several threads about it in the Cig section. Some people have had them made or bought them from Cigarette.

I wish it where that simple!
First there is the ethics of it, but the main problem is that if you need something custom we're into molds which is megabucks. If you have the mold it's fairly simple to knock out the windshield. If you don't it's a real pain 'cause it ties you up for weeks. Some of the oldies it's simple because they didn't form them.
With the economy as it is, we've been experimenting on overhauling windshields and have started with the high performance polycarbonate ones. Here we can sand them down to 8000 grit and reapply the hardcoat. That saves a bundle. We haven't done this with acrylics yet, tho!

Page 104 of the new Powerboat has an ad from Aero Marine about Acrylic Windshields. I happened to notice it when reading. LaVerne, CA 909-392-5544 Email [email protected] or www.aeromarineone.com. Looked interesting.
